Canonically, she owns Lævatein, the sword (or in some kennings of the sagas, staff or wand) of Loki, which is prophesied to be the weapon Surtr wields to end the world in fire at the climax of the Ragnarök. How someone who has been locked in a basement her whole life came to possess such a relic is not, as is typical of Touhou, explained. Some fanon interpretations hold that this explains why she's mad in the first place, because she holds what is essentially a relic of ultimate chaos. Or it holds her. It's hard to tell with relics at that level.

I submit that this would be a more suitable weapon for gopher endgame than mere danmaku, which she'll probably have been trying all along.

(Mind you, she also canonically possesses the power to just arbitrarly destroy anything instantly as the whim takes her, which is... not a balanceable ability, really, so I left it the hell out of Gallian Gothic. :)
